Intricate

 Painstakingly hand-crafted  ......


My right hand shakes when BP’s high,

Plus, I've no vision in one of my eyes,

These limitations contribute to the resulting shapes,

That from imperfections arise.

The Safer Option

 

Is Silence The Safer Option Or A Cowardly One?

This poem essays the dilemma faced by the protagonist when they come face-to-face with the acts of weaponized cruelty and bias crime.
They have been brought up in a faith that encourages speaking out against injustice.
If the protagonist takes a stand against the above, they know that there is the possibility of trouble for themselves, their lives changing drastically.
The protagonist is anxious and fearful and questions if they will be protected by their God if they follow the path set out by Him.
If they choose the path of silence, will they be acting out of cowardice?

Goodbye 2023! Hello 2024!

 Goodbye 2023! Hello 2024!

Over the years, whenever I have experienced any adversity, I have actively sought and have graciously learned the resultant lessons, implemented them in my life, and turned around adversity into benefit. This approach has held me in good stead.

Divinely Chosen

 Jamie Anderson: "Grief is love, with no place to go." 

Love taken away,  with no hope for return, 

Into grief gets translated,

For, "Grief is love,  with no place to go" 

Where the heart has disintegrated.
